Join one of our 6-Day, Small Group,

As the founder and owner of Off the Beaten Path, LLC (OTBP), I am American with French citizenship. My France Off the Beaten Path Tours began as a dream 28 years ago. As a woman-owned and run company, I took a leap of faith, transforming both my vision of travel and philosophy to enjoy life to its fullest into sharing authentic experiences in France with travelers. Throughout the years of ups and

downs, uncertainties that life can sometimes present us in travel, I've remained faithful to my dream in a world where only one constant, change, remains king. Along with my team of stellar guides and French friends and partners, we deliver unparalleled fun and memorable experiences. Unrivaled expertise in France plus incomparable quality, superlative customer service, and value for price set us apart from other tour companies.

My 1st newsletter of 2025 has been released.

It's a "A Retrospective of 30 Years Celebrating France!"

It was an emotional whirlwind putting this one together. As I sorted through over 500,000 photos, I realized how many lives my team and I have touched and how many guests have touched my life. I am speechless and thankful for the good fortune that has graced my life so that I could turn something I love into something so positive to share. Now onto writing the next chapter in 2025 and of course, Vive La France! ❤️🇫🇷🥂🏰🧀🥐😍😘
